Preparing a Section 21 Notice - Practical Tips for Property Managers

Introduction

Property managers are often required to assist solicitors when their landlord clients need to prepare a Section 21 Notice. With the law being more complicated than before, it is harder to ensure that all the necessary steps have been taken prior to the service of a Section 21 Notice.

Having a property manager who knows what needs to be done before a Section 21 Notice can be served makes a vital difference to landlords and the solicitors acting for them.

In this webinar, we will review the requirements in place before service of a Section 21 Notice with the focus on practical tips to assist property managers to comply with these requirements and avoid common pitfalls. Important: Section 21 ‘no-fault’ eviction notices will be abolished from 1 May 2026. Learn what you need to know before the law changes.
